| Description | Since the 19th century, Singapore and Malaysia have seen a massive influx of migration from southern China to the region. This was known as the first migration wave to Nanyang. Although these migrants had, due to complicated circumstances, moved to a foreign land, they still missed their home country and villages. Therefore, they generally followed traditional Chinese teaching content and methods for the education of their future generations. These migrants set up schools and taught in their own dialects. Before 1920, the British colonial government had, with minimal interference, allowed the Chinese migrants to freely develop Chinese education. This allowed for the independent funding and establishment of several Chinese schools. Student numbers steadily increased as the teaching materials used were similar to those used in China during the Late Qing and Early Republican period.
